Job Overview
The Senior Manager of Enterprise Security is a technical people leader responsible for developing, implementing, operating, and continuously optimizing a multi-layered security ecosystem across corporate, cloud, and product environments. This role drives a defense-in-depth strategy, embeds security into AI-augmented SecDevOps and continuous compliance programs, and leads a living, learning, and adaptive security function that evolves with the threat, regulatory, and business landscape. In partnership with Engineering, IT, Legal, and Governance, Risk, and Compliance, this leader translates security strategy into measurable outcomes that scale with the business.Job Description and Requirements
Defense in Depth & Security Operations
Architect and own the tactical execution of enterprise defense-in-depth strategy aligned with security strategic intent: define layered controls across network, endpoints, identity, cloud workloads, and data, with effective layered controls at every tier and coverage mapped to relevant frameworks.
Design and operate an integrated detection stack (EDR, NDR, CDR, SIEM/SOAR) with AI-enabled UEBA, ML-based alert prioritization, and automated enrichment to reduce MTTD and MTTR and increase defense in depth efficacy.
Enforce adaptive Zero Trust principles (ZTNA, least-privilege micro-segmentation, phishing-resistant MFA/FIDO2, JIT access) and SASE/SSE architecture across all access paths.
Ensure configuration and implementation of hardening standards using CIS Benchmarks/DISA STIGs with automated compliance validation, and maintain IR playbooks covering ransomware, supply chain compromise, cloud account takeover, and AI/ML model poisoning.
AI DevSecOps & Secure Development
Build and operate an AI-augmented DevSecOps program: embed SAST, DAST, SCA, secret scanning, IaC analysis, and container image security into CI/CD pipelines with AI-generated fix recommendations surfaced in PR workflows.
Deploy AI-assisted threat modeling, exposure analysis and exploit validation methods and establish generative and agentic AI security & governance methodologies.
Run a security champions program embedding technical advocates in engineering teams to own secure coding standards, security debt backlog management, and threat model participation.
Cloud, Vulnerability & Threat Intelligence
Lead, implement and optimize cloud security programs across multi-cloud environments with automated drift detection, policy-as-code enforcement, and runtime workload protection.
Run a risk-based exposure management program with threat intelligence context to prioritize remediation SLAs; operate continuous ASM.
Integrate threat intelligence (OSINT, commercial feeds, ISAC) into purple teaming efforts and conduct or oversee purple team engagements mapped to evolving threat landscape.
Governance, Strategy & Collaboration
Define and track security KPIs grounded in technical outcomes: patch SLA compliance, control coverage heat maps, mean dwell time, lateral movement detection rates, and pipeline gate trends.
Work with the information security GRC function to adapt and evolve security policies, technical standards, and control baselines aligned to SOX, SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, GDPR, and CCPA; to hedge risk associated with evolving regulatory landscape.
Partner with Compliance and Legal on audits, certifications, e-discovery, and forensic integrity requirements; translate technical risk into quantitative business impact using frameworks such as FAIR.
Serve as a trusted technical advisor to executives and architects; embed security into technology roadmaps, M&A due diligence, and vendor risk assessments.
